Why do you say that? Compressed air is still hotter.

We could say the same for a roots blower, and indeed, many older roots blower kits came without an IC.

Toyota will most likely do a small roots blower with top mount IC -- that's what they've typically done, no?

There will be room to grow too, methinks. Smaller pulley, better IC... ooh I is excited


Seriously, this news had me about leaping up and clicking my heels -- this is exactly what I was hoping for!

Unless the next gen Z is staggeringly more phenomenal by comparison, my next car will almost definite'y be a SC'd FR-S.
